Cinderella's Closet  |  Northern Kentucky

In their own words

"My dress that I received from you last year was beautiful! It was baby pink with different patches of reds and pink beading ... it was truly a fairy tail princess dress! I was very fortunate to be able to come to you for help last year... I was in between being jobs and I was trying to save every penny for a dress ... but as you may know prom dresses are very pricey and no matter how much I tried to save I always ended up just a little short. Because of Cinderella's Closet a big burden was lifted off of my shoulders, and I just want someone else to be able to feel the same way I did. This year I hope to buy my own prom dress with the money that I have been saving, and I am planning on donating it to Cinderella's closet afterward so that someone else can feel special on their big night!"

“I was blessed with the opportunity to have my dream dress and everything that goes with it. I wanted to thank you so much for the experience and for giving me and other girls the chance to feel like a real princess. I feel without Cinderella's Closet I wouldn't have had the perfect prom. Not only did the experience lift my spirits but it lifted a huge weight off of my shoulders. Not only was I worried about not being able to go to my Senior Prom, I was also worried about my mom because she had been sick, at the time Prom just wasn't in the cards for us and if it weren't for your organization I wouldn't have been able to go. I am not only grateful for that, but I am also very grateful to have had a wonderful "Fairy Godmother". She really made me feel like a princess. My mom even felt like a princess because everyone was so kind and it was a great relief on all of us.

Cinderella's Closet didn't just help us girls, it also helped our parents and I cannot express how much that means to me. For the first time in a long time my mom was truly happy, and I hadn't seen that in a while.

While getting ready for the big night I would not let any of my family members help, it had to be a surprise. Finally, when I walked up the stairs from my bedroom, letting everyone see me, I could see the tears welling up in my parents' eyes and it meant the world to me. I felt like I gave them the same gift you had given me.

I'm sure you know how much you have helped these girls and myself, but you didn't just help me go to prom; you helped my family come together and forget all the stresses we were feeling. We were finally happy and that moment lasted. Recently we have discovered that my mom is having another medical relapse and when hopes were down I brought up our time at Cinderella's Closet and we couldn't stop talking about it.

I would love to donate my used dresses to Cinderella's Closet so I can give back what I had experienced last year. My mom and I both filled out the registry to volunteer this year and we both cannot wait." "

“Thank you for a great day and helping me find my perfect dress. Not only will I look amazing, I’ll feel it too. I wouldn’t have been able to do this without you."

“Thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity. I had a really good time. I have never been to something like that, it was a great experience.”

“I wanted to thank you all for what you did for my daughter. It meant the world to her. I was so impressed (moved to tears is more like it) at the professional operation you had set up.“

“I appreciate the help you gave me in finding my beautiful prom dress. It really meant a lot to me.”
